G1 deck stencils

[TonyL]

Hi,
I picked up this nice 50’s LW Foster G-1 recently with a deck style stencil. Is this common? I haven’t seen this before though I have seen many G-1 jackets.

Thx, T

First time I’ve seen one like that as well.
It all looks right .

Yeah you do see it occasionally. I think there's at least one in 'Suit up!' with a stencil. Very nice jacket, BTW.

These jacket were issued Flight deck landing crews maybe that where the stencil comes in .

I *think* it’s NB0-VS 100 but a bit tough to tell between 0 and 9.
